Today we had our Target Ultrasound. It was so cool to watch. She was moving around so much that we got to see it on the screen. We got some awesome shots of her face. The Radiologist said everything was looking great with the baby. She said the baby was measuring about 4 days ahead of schedule (Emma was the same way) The baby measured about 1 lb 6 oz.

She looks just like her Big Sister

This is her arm, shoulder is on the upper right.

Nice profile view, above her forehead is her hand. She had on hand resting up by her head and the other resting down by her side

Christmas Eve was a crazy busy day. To top it all off I couldn't sleep from about 2:30am on :s We had our Dr. appt that morning, then we headed off to Brigham early cause Brock had some things he wanted to get done up there. So Emma and I hung out at Mugga and Pappas so Emma could try to have a nap (of course there was no luck on a busy day) Then we headed over to Brock's Grandma's house so Emma could open the presents from Great Grandma Jackie. Then we headed back to Mugga and Pappas to have our Party.

Kris had this AWESOME idea to have everyone paint/decorate ornaments for her tree. So each person had their first inital of their name. They got to paint them and decorate them with glitter. I will be doing that for our tree next year :) So here we are painting and decorating.

Santa hadn't even come yet and Emma had a mountian of presents from Mugga and Pappa and Aunts and Uncles. She is so lucky to have so many people that love her.

After she opened presents we played some fun games to get treats and prizes!

Christmas Eve was the much anticipated, and hopeful, gender reveal appointment. And the baby is a GIRL!!

At least that is what we think for now. Brock and I are a little skeptical. We both though we saw something between the legs, but the Dr said he's 97% sure its a Girl. We have the Target Ultrasound at the next appointment. But as for now we think we will name her:

Alexis "Lexi" Marie Petersen

Alexis is Brock's most favorite name, if he had his way that would have been Emma's name. We decided we wanted a middle name from my side, Marie is my Grammie's name. She was moving quite a lot this time too, which is so fun to see on the screen. Her hands were by her mouth, it almost looked like she was sucking her fingers. (A habit we'll need to break when she comes out)

We made some sugar cookies for Santa. Daddy decided to start a flour fight. It was everywhere! Hence the following pictures. Emma thought it was the funniest thing she's ever done. She got daddy just as much as he got her, if not more.

About Me

Emma K.

What can I say about our little Emma. She was born in Sept 2009. She's her Daddy's Sweetie, her Mommy's Princess. She is such a sweet little girl. She is very considerate, and caring of all of her family. She is a very helpful Big Sister. She sometimes thinks she is the mom and tries to boss Lexi around all the time. She is VERY literal and she can take some things very seriously, unfortunately she got that trait from me. We just love her so much. She is such a blessing in our lives.

Lexi M.

Lexi was born in May of 2013, and oh boy! is going to give us a run for our money when she gets older. She is walking and talking. She is SO funny to watch, she likes to sit on the floor and read books to herself. She speaks fluent Gibberish so well in fact that we have a hard time understanding her most of the time. She knows how to pester her sister. She definitely beats to the tune of her own drum and she likes it that way. She is so much fun! She is learning so fast that she is going to be able to keep up with her sister in no time.
